cloud mast | floor supported luminaire
cloud mast is a floor-supported luminaire. The 12-foot (3.7 meters) tall vertical mast is crowned by a boom that holds a cloud mobile in shifting balance with a large fishing weight, an elegant alternative to wiring the mobiles to a ceiling. As air currents shift, the clouds rise and fall like ships floating on gentle seas. The weight responds to each change, locked in a perpetual search for equilibrium. This natural rhythm creates an enthralling visual and the comforting sense of lounging under a tree.
With no visible hot spots, each cloud transmits a gentle light in all directions. The horizontal boom can rotate 360 degrees around the mast, allowing light to be repositioned over another area with ease. As a floor-supported luminary, cloud mast is ideal for temporary installations or within spaces where electrical wiring might disrupt the ceiling.
Design by Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen
available colour temperatures:
4000K · neutral daylight white
3000K · warm white
2700K · warmer white
All iterations of cloud mast have the same overall height of 12 feet (3.66 meters) and balance three cloud pendants.
90+ CRI:
Color Rendering Index (CRI) measures the ability of a human-made light source to reproduce the colours of the object it illuminates accurately. With a maximum score of 100, CRI values that are 90 and above are considered excellent, while scores below 80 are generally considered poor. CRI is measured in relation to the colour temperature of the light source and its equivalent daylight spectrum. All molo lighting, including the cloud softlight collection, is made with 90+ CRI LEDs.
counterweight:
The spherical weight is visually captivating, displaying a simple purity of form. Originally used for fishing, the nickel-plated lead weight is a small token of the Pacific Northwest.

Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen cofounded molo in 2003 and are best known for sharing their ideas and products for flexible, sustainable spacemaking around the world. Over the past three decades, the partners have worked together and led the Vancouver-based studio from humble beginnings to international recognition and acclaim. Along the way, they have assembled a dedicated team and a family of specialized manufacturers that support them in this endeavour. The partners work together to design all of molo’s products and projects, which range in size from a tea set to a museum. Forsythe and MacAllen met in 1994 while studying Architecture at Dalhousie University. Between 1994 and 2003, they worked together on several award-winning architectural projects and competition proposals. These projects included foundational investigations into materials, flexibility, and sustainable space making. The partners built molo around these early explorations and ideas, and they continue to drive the spirit behind the studio. Together, they designed and developed the iconic soft collection, a sculptural line of innovative, flexible space partitions, furniture, and lighting elements made from paper and textile. The award-winning soft collection is well known for its poetic beauty and pragmatic design. It experiences steady, iterative development as Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen continue their experiential and technical investigations, or as a sensitivity to nature and how the products interact with light and shadow inspires new finishes or colours. Stephanie Forsythe, Todd MacAllen, and molo hold over thirty-five patents and thirty design registrations. They have received numerous international design and architecture awards, including the prestigious Danish INDEX Award for Design to Improve Life for softwall, the Architectural Review AR + D Award for Colorado House, 2010 Emerging Voices Award from The Architectural League of New York and Grand Prize in the Aomori Northern Housing Competition. Their products have been acquired by many museum and gallery collections, including the New York Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), the Chicago Art Institute, Die Neue Sammlung, and the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.
